Ke$ha Out For Vengeance In Musical March Madness

'I'm getting ready as we speak,' she tells MTV News of this year's tournament, tipping off Monday.
By James Montgomery

Last year, based mainly on her attitude, the fact that she <a href="/news/articles/1644961/keha-tries-shock-world-at-casio-launch.jhtml">plays an AK-47 shaped guitar</a> and the presence of photos like <a href="http://resources2.news.com.au/images/2011/03/13/1226020/684522-ke-ha-drinks-blood.jpg" target="_blank">this</a>, Ke$ha was given an 11 seed in MTV's Musical March Madness tournament — and promptly <a href="http://newsroom.mtv.com/2011/03/15/march-madness-u2-kesha-green-day-adam-lambert/">lost by a huge margin to U2</a> in the opening round.<CENTER><embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:747290/cp~vid%3D747290%26uri%3Dmgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.com%3A747290" width="430" height="242" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed></CENTER>Of course, she's spent the past 12 months fuming over that early exit, and now, she's going to get her shot at redemption. Not only is Ke$ha back in the 2012 MMM tournament — which kicks off Monday — but she's beefed up her rock credentials: working with the likes of <a href="http://www.billboard.com/news/alice-cooper-welcomes-ke-ha-to-his-nightmare-1005326082.story#/news/alice-cooper-welcomes-ke-ha-to-his-nightmare-1005326082.story" target="_blank">Alice Cooper</a>, channeling the <a href="/news/articles/1663946/kesha-new-album.jhtml">"sexiness" of '70s rock</a> on her new album, recording a (genuinely pretty great) <a href="/news/articles/1676260/kesha-bob-dylan-cover.jhtml">cover of Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright"</a> and spending time <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/keshasuxx/status/160937170826313728" target="_blank">snorting Tums</a> with Wayne Coyne.So, yeah, this year, she's ready to knock off the field of 63 other acts gunning for the MMM trophy — a brimming bracket that includes <a href="/news/articles/1661353/musical-march-madness-winner-green-day.jhtml">defending champions Green Day</LINK>, upstarts <link type="content" id="1680595">Fun.</a> and <a href="/news/articles/1678693/black-keys-kesha.jhtml">good pals the Black Keys</a>, to name just a few — and reign supreme. But just in case all that rock-and-roll prep work isn't enough to put her over the top, well, Ke$ha has another secret weapon at the ready: an incredibly toned pelvic floor."I'm getting ready as we speak. I'm doing Kegels," she told MTV News, while throwing phantom punches at an unsuspecting cameraman. "Vote for me!"MTV's 2012 Musical March Madness tournament begins Monday, March 12, when we'll unveil the full field of 64 bands that will battle for this year's championship. Winners are determined by fan votes, so if your favorite act made the cut, it will be up to you to guide them to glory. You can rally the troops on Twitter using the hashtag #MMM — but get ready, it's gonna be a war.<CENTER><embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:746346/cp~vid%3D746346%26uri%3Dmgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.com%3A746346" width="430" height="242" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed></CENTER>

Robert Pattinson kicked Kristen Stewart out

Last week there were reports that Robert Pattinson had moved out of the house he shared with Kristen Stewart, on account of her whoring. But that didn’t make a ton of sense considering it’s his house and he paid $6.2 million for it. A more likely scenario was he was simply giving her time to pack up, and now that does in fact seem to be the case.

A source tells People that the actor, who has been staying out of sight since leaving the home he shares with Stewart in Los Angeles, recently asked her to remove her belongings from the house.
And early Saturday morning, a moving truck was spotted doing just that.

In addition to these words, People has a picture of a house in Hollywood, where movie stars live, and a u-haul. It all seems legit. If they’re lying, they’ve done their homework.

Usher's Stepson Kile Glover: What Happened?

'There is no one that has been declared brain dead that has survived to being functional,' said neurologist Dr. Bren Masel, who was not treating Glover.
By Gil Kaufman

More than a week after <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/usher/artist.jhtml">Usher's</a> stepson, Kile Glover, was <a href="/news/articles/1689206/ushers-stepson-declared-brain-dead-after-jet-ski-accident.jhtml">pronounced brain dead</a>  following a traumatic head injury suffered during a <a href="/news/articles/1689261/usher-kyle-glover-jet-ski-jeffrey-s-hubbard.jhtml">jet-ski accident</a> , the 11-year-old boy <a href="/news/articles/1690157/usher-stepson-kile-glover-taken-off-life-support.jhtml">died</a>  of heart failure on Saturday.Glover, the son of Usher's ex-wife, Tameka Foster, was reportedly taken off life support Saturday morning and died a short time later.Given the seriousness of his injury, which resulted from blunt trauma to the head after Glover was hit by a jet-ski while floating in an inner tube on Atlanta's Lake Lanier, MTV News spoke to a neurologist about the prospects for victims of such major brain injuries."There is no one that has been declared brain dead that has survived to being functional," said neurologist Dr. Brent Masel, national director of the Brain Injury Association of America and medical director of the Transitional Learning Center of Galveston, Texas several days before Glover was pronounced dead. "They will not get better."Masel, who was not treating Glover and had no first-hand knowledge of the case, explained that the prognosis in such cases is so grim because of the make-up of the brain. "When someone is declared brain dead, it's not that their brain is not functioning at all," he said. "There are two components to the brain, the cerebrum, which is the thinking part and the brain stem, which narrows and becomes the spinal cord."The stem is the automatic part, which controls respiration and heart rate and someone can technically live without a functioning cerebrum, which is not unusual in such injuries. "The thinking part of the brain is no longer functioning and all the patient has functioning is the brain stem," he said. "Very often what happens when you're deciding if someone is brain dead, you take them off the respirator and they're not even breathing and the only thing going is their heart, which will stop functioning if you're not breathing."Glover and a second victim, a 15-year-old girl, were struck by a Jet Ski while floating on an inner tube in Atlanta's Lake Lanier. Both children were airlifted to the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston pediatric hospital. The girl is reported to have suffered from a cut on the head and a broken arm, while Glover took the brunt of the trauma to his head.Asked how it's possible that Glover could have suffered such a terrible wound while the girl in the inner tube with him escaped with less serious injuries, Masel said it is part of the unpredictable nature of trauma medicine. Pointing to a jet-skiing accident he was involved in 10 years ago in which he nearly ran over a friend's son, as well as the shooting of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (whose case he helped work on), Masel said "it's a matter of millimeters."Just a few millimeters over and Glover may have come out with a very different wound, he said, noting that there are several very vulnerable spots on the brain that can result in such injuries. "As physicians, especially with a child, it's the hardest thing in the world because very often the child sort of looks okay and there are miracles that could occur," he said."What I always try to do is ask, 'what would I do if this was my sister or brother?' If I were the doctor I would say, 'if this were my child this is what I would do.' Could you breathe for that patient forever? Yes, We know artificial respiration isn't adequate, [though] and it's not the same as breathing normally. You can have someone on a respirator for a long period of time and eventually the brain deteriorates. Even if they said they want[ed] to keep him on the respirator for six months, or a year and wait for a miracle, the brain [wouldn't] be the same."The man driving the jet ski has been identified as 38-year-old Jeffrey S. Hubbard, a family friend. At this time the police have determined that no drugs were involved, and no charges have been filed.

Chloe Moretz Impresses Co-Stars While Filming "Carrie" Reboot

Riding the momentum of her highly regarded performance in "Dark Shadows," Chloe Moretz is now earning acclaim from her co-stars for her work in "Carrie."

The 15-year-old actress plays the title character in the 2013 reboot of the 1976 horror classic about a social outcast who discovers she has psionic power that flares up when she becomes angry or distressed.

"Californication" actress Judy Greer, who plays Mrs. Desjardin in the film, had these words to say to E! about her young co-star. "Chloe's performance - and this is literal - has brought me to tears on set. She's made me cry because I find her performance to be incredibly moving. I'm feeling a lot of compassion for her."

Still awaiting the filming of the most famous scene, a pig-blood filled prom sequence, Greer described director Kimberly Peirce's take on the scene as "kind of beautiful. It's really totally jarring and creepy, but also in a strange way gorgeous."

The movie will be released sometime early next year.

Bristol Palin on Return to Dancing with the Stars: All God's Plan!

Bristol Palin will make her return to Dancing with the Stars this fall, as the reality TV star has been included on that show's first-ever All-Star cast.

What drew her back to the ballroom? Not attention or money or any request made by ABC, Palin told reporters today at the Television Critics Association press tour. It was all The Big Guy Upstairs.

“God provides opportunities like this for me," Bristol said. "It’s a positive, active show. It’s going to be awesome."

But what if - that same God, please forbid! - Palin gets aligned with a gay partner. Considering her view on marriage, won't that be a problem?

“I like gays,” Bristol said. “I’m not a homophobic. Just because I’m for traditional marriage... I don’t hate anybody. People will make up things about me. I’m going to go dance and have fun. It’s not about politics, it’s not about traditional marriage. It’s about dancing. That’s all I have to say about it.”

Hey, like a grown, professional woman once said: haters are going to hate.

What do you think of Bristol Palin returning to Dancing with the Stars?

Ryan Lochte Takes Home First Gold Medal for US in the London Olympics

The United States can thank Ryan Lochte for scoring the team’s first gold medal after his win in the 400-meter individual swimming medley on Saturday (July 28).

The 27-year-old speed swimmer beat out Michael Phelps, who came in fourth after finishing last in the qualifying race earlier this morning.

Lochte is the reigning world champion in the 400 IM and said, “I put the work in, so I know it’s my time and I’m ready,” after his impressive win.

In return, the 14-time Olympic gold medalist said, “Just a crappy race. I felt fine the first 200. I don't know. I don't think the lane has anything to do with it. It's just really frustrating to start off on a bad note like this.”

Michael added, “It's pretty upsetting. The biggest thing now is to try to get past this and move forward. I was lucky to get in. I had a chance to put myself in a good spot to start off, and I didn't do it.”

Usher's Stepson Declared Brain Dead After Jet-Ski Accident

Kile Glover, son of singer's ex-wife, Tameka Foster, was with family on Georgia's Lake Lanier.
By Rob Markman

Things went from bad to worse for Kiie Glover, Usher's 11-year-old stepson. After a tragic Jet Ski accident left the <a href="http://rapfix.mtv.com/2012/07/08/ushers-son-injured-in-jet-ski-accident/">youngster in critical condition</a> on Friday, doctors have now declared him brain dead.<a href="http://www.tmz.com/2012/07/08/usher-tameka-foster-stepson-brain-dead/" target=="_blank">TMZ</a> is reporting that Glover, who is the son of Usher's ex-wife, Tameka Foster, has not experienced any brain activity since he was admitted into the hospital two days ago. According to reports, the pre-teen and a friend were floating in inner tubes on Lake Lanier in Atlanta when they were struck by a man on a Jet Ski. Glover was unresponsive when he was taken out of the water and airlifted to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston; his friend, an unidentified 15-year old girl, was treated for a cut on the head and a broken arm.According to the <a href="http://www.ajc.com/news/reports-ushers-stepson-injured-1473926.html" target="_blank">Atlanta Journal-Constitution,</a> the Georgia Department of Natural Resources said that alcohol doesn't appear to have been a factor in the accident and the newspaper also reported that the man on the Jet Ski and Glover were part of the same group on an outing at the lake.Foster and Usher (born Usher Raymond) were married in 2007 but divorced in 2009. The two are reportedly both present at the hospital.Many of Usher and Foster's celebrity friends took to Twitter on Sunday (July 8) to express their deepest sympathies."My deepest prayers go out to Tameka, Usher and both of their families right now," Diggy Simmons wrote."Wishing @TamekaRaymond's son godspeed recovery. horrible news to hear," Roots drummer Questlove added, while television personality La La Anthony wrote: "Praying for @TamekaRaymond and her family. Asking to give her and her family strength during this difficult time. Praying for u Kile."This tragedy comes a month after Usher released his latest #1 album, Looking 4 Myself.Share your well wishes for Usher and his family in the comments section.

News Roundup: Lana Del Rey’s ‘Summertime Sadness’ Music Video, Mumford And Sons Announce New Album Details And More

This week, Lana Del Rey released another music video. This one’s for “Summertime Sadness” and follows in that DIY vintage style she did for “Video Games” and “National Anthem.” The Spice Girls also booked a gig. This time they’re set to perform at the closing ceremony for the London Olympics. And Mumford and Sons have finally revealed the details for their upcoming sophomore record Babel. All that and more below.

Spice Girls At Olympics: Yesterday we heard that The Who would be performing at the upcoming London Olympics. Now, word from Rolling Stone is that The Spice Girls are set to perform at the games’ closing ceremony on August 12th. The gals will perform two singles including “Wannabe.”
Babel: Mumford & Sons have announced the name of their next highly anticipated record – Babel. It’ll be released September 25 (as previously reported). The new record will include twelve songs. This record will go hand in hand with their tour, which kicks off August 1 in New Jersey. Be sure to listen to the record before you go to one of their shows though. It’s always more fun to sing along, don’t you think?
15 Sensational Superhero Songs: Last week we told you about Billboard‘s 15 sensational superhero songs, now they’ve made another list of The 5 Best Songs About Batman, which makes sense because it’s Dark Knight Rises weekend! Their list includes songs like Prince‘s “Batdance,” Panic! At The Disco’s “Mercenary,” and R. Kelly‘s “Gotham City.”
Summertime Sadness: Lana Del Rey has a new music video. It seems like she’s going to be doing a music video for all of the songs on her Born To Die record. This one’s for “Summertime Sadness,” and features a lot of crying and jumping off buildings. Check it out:
